Cityfan Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Imperial Commander was an odds on favourite and winner of a huge race like the Gold Cup, can that be classed as a tip? I've put two tips on this thread before, both of which placed, but a place for me is a hollow win at best, theres something about getting a place that means nothing to me. So you don't class it as a tip because the price is too short? a 10/11 winning tip is better than a 18/1 losing tip! and it's not like it was that short, if it was 1/2 or 4/9, then I'd understand but it was 8/11 when I posted, which in my opinion was terrific value as it was a dead cert to win that race for the reasons I posted. In the end, the SP was 10/11, so couldn't believe my luck to get an even better price and I got a return of £95.45 from my £50 stake, almost double my money and to do so was an absolute steal from the bookies, as it was a terrific price. I have a day of work today so took a stab at the sedgefield placepot, seeing as it was a lot of small fields. Waiting on the last 2 to get it up. Have tried posting a wee photo of it, but not sure if it will work. Nice one, I see the 5th just won! I'll be watching the last with a lot of interest, hoping Mardood places for you! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cityfan Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Aw shit, I'm an idiot. Had a placepot at Uttoxeter come up today... Usually, I'll always, always do an accumulator with the 6 picks just incase the 6 win. Today I didn't bother and of course, all 6 horses won 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerwick Lad Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Jeez unlucky mate - what were the accumulated odds? Or is that just torture? Anyway, have a green dot from me. Edit to say i have worked it out to be 34 / 1. Ouch. Edited November 25, 2010 by Lerwick Lad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cityfan Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Edit to say i have worked it out to be 34 / 1. Ouch. The 34/1 is only based on the Starting Price's though. Most of those prices weren't as short as the SP's this morning, so would've been more. Only have myself to blame though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cityfan Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 It's Deman time again. Looking good for a Hennessy hat trick. Of course, that's if the weather allows. The forecast suggests there might not be much, if any Racing tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
